NASA has been crippled; it will probably not significantly compete in any new projects; and it’s doubtful some of the science programs scheduled to launch in the future will be completed
Yup, can’t wait for SpaceX to miraculously achieve projects launched or planned by NASA, after all its more evidence that private companies are more efficient!
Less because capabilities, but because the cut of subventions of the state, always the way to substitite public services with privat companies by right wing neo-liberal govs, using your taxes to support private companies instead of public ones, in this cas, all the cash to Musk, instead to the NASA, to make the U$ great again.
It’s almost like if you gut the people who know what they are doing you can’t do the things that you want to do

And that’s on top of having to launch >20 starships back to back to fill up the tank of the one supposed to land on the moon because of evaporation of the cryogenic fuel mind you.
TBH I don’t really believe anything NASA says when it comes to stuff like this. It’s basically been ~5 years away from going back to the moon and ~20 years from going to Mars for my entire life, and I’m not a young person.
